THE LOVE OF JESUS.
How to Impress the Outer World
With 1t.


Rev. j. Hall spoke at the First Free
Baptist church yesterday morning on
1.-The AttractivenesS of Jesus" He
said in subtance:
Il wish to speak this morning to
Christian workers on the attractiveness
of Jesus and to hold Him before you as
your great eXemplar. Now, it has ever
been question with the church how to
impress the outer world and bring men
to a knowledge of their lost condition
and of Jesus Christ as their Saviour. Any
church that has not the desire to save
men has written over it IchabOd,' for
its glory is departed. Well, for this end
we plan for revivals, engage some re-
VivaliSt to aid in the work and COM
mence special meetings. Or we pray
that God will do something wonderful,
and sometimes think when that is done
we need do but little more. We say we
have faith that God is going to do some
thing. But faith without works is dead
and the power of God is not a lounge
upon which the lazy may sleep. This
work is our work and must be done by
human hearts and hands. But in this
work have we any great model? Surely,
we have. 1t is Jesus Christ who says:
Follow Me, and / will make you fish
ers of men," But do present Jesus
Christ before you, the perfect man, the
successful worker. How did He win
hearts? You say He was divine. But
not thus, for He drew by the cards of a
man. There was a wonderful approach
ableneSS about Jesus Christ, an easy
accessibility to His heart which gave
Him an accessibility to other hearts.
Fathers and mothers, how is it with
you? Do your sons and daughters find
you easy of access and your heart open
to receive them, guide, comfort and aid
them?

1t Wasn't Murder Exactly.

"Stop, Nellie! Don't kill me! For
Heavens sake, do you intend to murder

Saturday night. The effect was cleo
trlcal-white rObed figures appeared at
the doors along the hallway and whis-
pered consultations were held. Mean

Let up, will yOu!"
This was too much for one of the
roomers, who BADLY declared his inten-
ton of finding out what was the matter.
Clad only in his night shirt and panta-
looms, he rushed for the door. A
woman, clad only in her robe de nuct,
also rushed after him, her long hair
streaming in the air. "Henry, come
back. or You'll be murdered.' She cricd.
But Henry would not listen, and catch

the sight that met his eyes-not an in

over the lifelesS corpse of man-nu

on the bed beside the writing body of
her husband, calmly but deteI1ninedly
tearing porous plaster from his chest,
while lie begged her, with tears, to
desist.
Henry got down from his perch
speedily, and remarked: 81 guess all

"sALTING THE SPRINGS"
How the Beautiful Spring of
Jerico Was Purified.

Jerico Was Purified.
Following is an abstract of the adj
dress made by Rev. G. J.. Morrill, to the
Sunday school of Calvary Baptist
church at the Bible day service. He
said:
Jerico had been known for its beauti-
full situation and wealth, but JOshua's
curse had fallen upon it and the. palm
groves were blighted, the flower gar
denS dead, Shepherds mourned the poor
condition of their flOcks, while among
the citys inhabitants, there was wide
spread suffering and divorce. The
trouble was bad, poisonous water, it
was ''naught"-goOd for nothing.
The situation of our land in pleas
anti oceans, rivers, lakes, mountains,
valleys. praiTies, variety of climate, fer
tile soil, a government of liberty and
equality the best in history, yet cOurs-
ing and cursing it is in a stream which
brings blight and barrenneSs to many
homes, communities and cities. Poll
tics is corrupt and cOrrupting and
hOneycOmbed with fraud. Channels of
commerce are INSTRUCTED by financial
shipwreckS sunk through dishonesty.
Depraved literature flows with
moral desOlatiOn over young
hearts. Unhealthy pleasures drown
and damn while much of philosophy,
poetry. so-called science that passes for
theology is ''naught'' in Gods sight and
leaves all with its influence barren of
the fruits of righteousness. We need
consecrated, sympathetic Elishas, ser
wants of God to remove the curse of
deSOlation and death which holds such
wide and woeful sway. TO put salt in
the spring seemed foolish because it
was already blackish and bitter. But
Gods way was the best and only way.
The gospel is the salt of saving and
purifying influence. Men have tried to
destroy Gods word, but like
cube of granite it is as big and
strong one way as the other, and always
stands right side up. Boys young
enough to be registered on Jail records
are old enough to have their names re-
corded in the Lambs Book of Life. Let
parents and teachers recall Il Samuel,
Josiah and Timothy, and remember the
pleasure, privilege and duty of stand
ing nearest the primal source of human
character; of casting the salt of divine
truth into hearts cursed with the faint
of sin, that the stream may beautify
and bless the world in its passage along
the course of events, instead of wither-
ing and cursing everything it passes by.

HOW HANGING LOOKS.
1t Would Have Been Best 10 I'M
prison the Anarchists.

II. NJ. Simmons spoke on the subject,
allow Hanging Looks Now" He said
we must not view the question from a
sentimental standpoint. A man who
Stays others cannot ask us TO save him.
A man who tries to destroy society can
claim no rights in it. The simple cues
ton is, what treatment of him will best
serve the public safety? Is it death or
imprisonment? Mr.. Simmons discourse
was mainly an argument from history
to show that the latter proves the best.
England century ago, after having
long hung hundreds every year. was far
more troubled by crime, than Holland.
which hardly hung at all. He quoted
sayings of many eminent men against
capital puniShment.-from Blackstone
down to our Gov. Andrews, who said
it would ''SOme day cease to
be known in civilized ma
lions . and Richard Golden. who
hoped to yet ''look back upon the bar
barous and brutal gallowS as a thing of
the past" The death penalty often in
creaseS crime by making jurieS unwill-
ing to convict and so letting criminals
go free. Even when executed it seems
not to deter others from crime. A chap
lain of Bristol jail said that of 167 men
he had witnessed executed, 164 had wit
messed executions. Executions seem
even to incite disorder: and Charles
Sumner well said, Every example of
violence by the state is injurious to
public morals" So high an authority
on criminal questions as Mittermaier
wrote: statistics show that when and
where the number of executions was
greatest, the capital crimes greatly in
creaSed;" and from long study of the
question he said: 1.-The death penalty
is not so effective in protecting society
from crime as Imprisonment
Coming TO the case of the anarchists,
DR.. Simmons said: How much have we
gained by hanging them? Have we
terrified others? Time only can show,
but history answers no." and the pres
ent mutteringS of the anarchist press
and people seem to echo the answer.
We have gained the removal of these
dangerous men from society, which is
certainly good thing. But would not
imprisonment have done it better? To
day the imprisoned ones have sunk into
mere cipEerS, deSpised by the country
and by many of their own companions,
and soon TO be forgotten by all. But
how about the fOnr we have hung? The
simple truth is we have taken these
enemies of society from the ignOminy
in which they were three months ago,
and in which they should have remained
forever, and have turned them into he
rOes. Our very city papers praise them.
The headlines displayed their "won-
drouS frmness'' and "unfaltering devo-
ton to the principles they held.n The
kilograms praised their courage and
courtesy and kindness. One gave a
pathetic picture of Spies parting with
his Glowing mother. proud of her son" ;;
and another told how Parsons 'face
looked handsome" on the scafTOld, and
his eyes seemed to burn into mems
hearts and ask, What have | done?' "
Such words, and similar ones, sent to
millions of readers, indicate and increasS
an honor for heroes instead of scorn for
